>>> list(irange(-12, 20, 4)) [-12, -8, -4, 0, 4, 8, 12, 16] However, it does not like large or negative slices: >>> list(irange(-2**65,2**65,2**61)) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "<stdin>", line 1, in <lambda> OverflowError: long int too large to convert to int >>> list(irange(32,2,-3)) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "<stdin>", line 1, in <lambda> ValueError: Indices for islice() must be non-negative integers or None. Perhaps the documentation can mention that. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7721> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
